Host So, here we are, once again gathered around a table, still for a new episode of this show – Creative CapCut Editing Conversations! Hey there, everyone, my name is Abdul Rehman, and today unmasking, we will go through the program called CapCut which is a marvelous app for editing videos. Being a great video editor platform, CapCut has plenty of features for both new and pro users to explore. So, let me begin and help you demystify how to master video editing software called CapCut. Host But, first, let’s talk about what exactly is CapCut and why is it becoming so famous nowadays. Leveraging on the same ByteDance, CapCut is a free video editing application that comes with support for both iOS and Android operating systems. It is simple enough for a casual user, while at the same time packed with every feature that one would want in an app to create professional videos on their mobile device. Segment 1 Key Features of the CapCut App Host Thus, the question is, which can set the application apart from the array of other video editors? First and foremost, it is the simplicity of working with it, primarily caused by the clear and easily navigated interface. Even though its interfaces are complex and professional, the website and application are user-friendly for anyone. Every instrument is provided on the main screen with no distractions or complex menu navigation in between. This is also good for those unable to navigate through complex software since this comes with straightforward operation. But beware – they are not as simple as one might get a first impression of! It is a pretty powerful tool, with many settings and tools that are available even in professional desktop editors. Depending on the editing it may range from simple cutting, and trimming, to transitions, filters, and effects, CapCut is a go-to application as though editing is done with all the aid of a fuller studio in your hand-held pocket. Segment 2 CapCut: A Step-by-Step Guide Host Finally, it’s time to give you a proper guide on how to use CapCut. First, install the app either from the Apple Store or the Google Store on your phone. After the installation is complete, start the application, and the first interface you will see is basic with a set of options available. Here, you can again begin a new project or, indeed, work on one that has already been previously established. Initializing a new project is rather easy. Simply hit on “New Project,” and you will enter the project creation screen which asks you to add the videos and photos. Once you have selected your option, press on the “Add” button, and you will be transferred to the editing option. Editing is where the real work takes place: the editing interface is the classroom. At the bottom reside your timeline where you get to arrange and edit your clips in the desired order. Varying editing tools such as trim, split, and speed are located above the timeline and the filters button is also displayed. Feel free to look at some of these following tools as well as how you could integrate them into your videos: Segment 3 The word processor comes equipped with basic editing tools such as cut, copy, paste, and, more elaborate features like using templates, envelopes, and others. Host The initial and probable first tools you would apply are the trim and split functions. Trimming helps you remove the unwanted portion from the clip while splitting enables you to split the clip into one or more clips. Cutting the clip is very easy; select the desired clip and by holding your finger on the clip, drag the start and end arrows to the preferred position. Trimming a clip is as simple. Make a tap on the Specific clip, place the play head at the point where you need to split a video, then tap on the Split button. This is particularly helpful if there are some segments in a clip that you wish to edit individually or to place a transition in. When it comes to transitions, CapCut provides an enormous amount of them. To add a transition, one has to click on the empty grey bar located between two clips in the timeline. From here you will get a list of all the transition types including the basic fade-in and fade-out to advanced like zoom and rotate. The one that fits the context of your project best will then be used and this will happen automatically. Segment 4 For instance, the use of formatting, Graphics, and tables. Host In terms of next-level features, there is nothing like filters and effects that we do not touch. There is virtually an endless number of filters available in CapCut that can make a striking altered appearance of your video. In order to add a filter go to the specific clip that is to be edited and consequently click on the ‘Filter’ on the top panel. Scroll down the choices made and click on the one that is preferred to use it. Other than filters, CapCut has other special effects that are very ...
